US senator: Israel has the right to nuke Gaza

May 13, 2024 - 19:46

Senator Lindsey Graham has compared Israel’s war on Gaza to the US decision to drop atomic bombs on Japan in World War II during an interview on NBC News’ “Meet the Press.”

“When we were faced with destruction as a nation after Pearl Harbor, fighting the Germans and the Japanese, we decided to end the war by the bombing [of] Hiroshima [and] Nagasaki with nuclear weapons,” Graham said. “That was the right decision.”

He added, “Give Israel the bombs they need to end the war. They can’t afford to lose.”

Graham, a staunch supporter of Israel, used the analogy multiple times while condemning President Joe Biden for threatening to withhold certain weapons from Israel if it launches a military operation in Rafah, the southernmost city in Gaza where over a million civilians are sheltering.

He turned a blind eye to the massacre of more than 35,000 Palestinians in Gaza saying, “So, Israel, do whatever you have to do to survive as a Jewish state. Whatever you have to do.”
